What I like about this image is, the building still exists. The entire building with the train shed, minus those large pointy things is still there. And while there was a gap of non service, its in service now. Though the train shed is more of a big room for parties.
If you look carefully, there is a horse cart by the tracks that spelled PHONE with a backwards N.
The building is there, not the out buildings. There is a huge interstate blocking the view. The road is at the level of the first roof line, above awnings. And on google maps there is a cute abandoned building to the right of it, rather charming, makes me wonder what the other buildings were like if there were any.
